Lightweight DUO universal formwork
The latest in materials science Technopolymers in formwork and scaffolding technology
Polymer-coated fibres are the source material for the production of DUO components.
For many years now, PERI has been carrying out research and development in the field of polymer products. Throughout this process, the company has focused on the practical application of these materials in construction engineering. This has resulted in the creation of a composite material that is based on a polymer matrix.
PERI material research focuses on technopolymers that are particularly robust and durable. All development activities are aimed at the specific use of these polymers in formwork and scaffolding technology. This has resulted in, for example, the development of simple stopend angles for slab edges and other items. PERI took an important additional step in the application of such polymers with the development of the DUO – a new, complete formwork system consisting of this material. PERI optimised the material properties of the DUO system components by incorporating additives.
